THE AFRICAN, the premier African magazine published in the United States, is the prime source of first-hand information about U.S.-Africa relations in the spheres of Politics, Business, and Culture, and the historical and contemporary relations between Africa and black America, as well as the African Diaspora throughout the world. THE AFRICAN covers developments relative to politics, business, culture, and entertainment. It is driven by the philosophy that Africa
should not be viewed solely through the prism of the many woes that permeate the continent—poverty, the short supply of democracy, etc. It is committed to strengthening the relations between Africans and African Americans. THE AFRICAN is a pioneering, upscale magazine that fills the vacuum of unbiased news reporting about Africa in the United States.
